the attack in benghazi, libya. what more are we learning about the attacks and the measures the state department is trying to take to ensure the safety of its personnel left in benghazi, tripoli and elsewhere. >> you have a couple of things, anderson. what they're trying to do is make sure the security of the people who are left, and that's only in tripoli, not in benghazi, is assured, so they're sending some marines. it's kind of like a quick reaction for us to the embassy in tripoli to beef that up. they're also notifying troops around the world that potentially they could be used in various ways to ensure the security of american personnel and then, of course, as you mentioned, you've got the destroyers. this would be the destroyers and the drones would be used more, let's say, if the president determined that it was a time to strike against whoever was the group that carried out this attack. and, anderson, there have been a lot of very interesting and disturbing and very sad details that are coming out. you kno

his administration described the crime that had taken place in benghazi is related to the video. it wasn't video. it was an act of terrorism. this story has changed. this is the background. so much for the rest is a good deal of revision of history. cheryl: you think the critics can get past the fact that he is not meeting with benjamin netanyahu or any other foreign leaders. he is going on talk shows. he is on "the view." he is going to dinners here in new york. is that really an appropriate thing to do during the general assembly when you have a crisis in the middle east? >> when you appear on "the view", you don't care about international diplomacy. a long time now, everything has been tethered to his campaign. "the view" gets him voters. we know that. president netanyahu does not vote in this election. so, really, i think you can describe the foreign policy of barack obama as a foreign policy of david axelrod. it's all tied to a selection. cheryl: you mentioned his example. back in 2009 he made a big speech in cairo, egypt. it was big hope is when the friends of the muslims.

that's something we heard after the benghazi attack happened. where do you think we are now in terms of terrorism. obviously as the president said, the traditional al qaeda as we know it seems to have been decimated. top leaders including osama bin laden are gone but where are we? >> i think again that's a statement. the ail die is the al qaeda. there are mutant forms. there are a lot of wannabes and look-alikes. i think active terrorism in spite of the fact that the president rightly has given some credit for eliminated osama bin land, it's a misnomer and somewhat naive to say merely because you cut the head of the organization, now you have other groups affiliated, oftentimes rhetorically affiliated but others given guidance from others and the arabian peninsula. it ooh's dominant force in the region in cahoots from time to time with the iranian influence as well. we're going be dealing with activism terrorism, look-alikes and wannabes. >> i'm going to ask you to play chameleon again. this is a question people are thinking about. if you were a
